However, the growth on Google+ has been great--and I’m excited to release some new metrics for you today. Over 10M people have joined Google+. Great achievement for the team

Considering the fact that Google+ is still in field testing and have not been opened to everyone, 10 million users is indeed a very impressive figure. Also keep in mind that Google+ was announced only two weeks back.

Another very interesting piece of information that Page shared was the activity in Google+. he said that there is more than a billion items being shared and received in Google+ everyday. As I (and many others) have suspected, this proves that the interaction in Google+ is much higher than in Twitter and Facebook (for now at least) which is a very good thing.

There’s also a ton of activity. We are seeing over 1 billion items shared and received in a single day

Page also mentioned that the +1 button which they released earlier is now being served more than 2.3 billion times everyday.

And by the way, Larry page also announced that this quarter has been a record quarter for Google with a quarterly revenue of $9 billion and a 32% increase in revenue year on year.
